McCULLOCH, CHAIRPERSON IN RE: SHERIFF DEPARTMENT - ACCEPTANCE OF 1993/1994 CHARITABLE INSTITUTION AGREEMENT - MISCELLANEOUS RESOLUTION #94254 TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen: Pursuant to Rule XI-G of this Board, the Finance Committee has reviewed Miscellaneous Resolution #94254 and finds: 1. The Oakland County Sheriff Department is qualified as a charitable institution, by the United States Department of Agriculture and the Michigan Department of Education, to receive surplus food. 2. Value of the food received through this agreement in 1993 was $84,000. The receipt of this food is a direct offset to the cost of prisoner care experienced by the County. 3. While the actual food is free of charge, the Sheriff Department must cover the cost of food transportation. The annual estimated cost of $18,000 is included in the Sheriff's budget. 4. Although the Sheriff Department has participated in the program for a number of years, KPMG, the County's independent auditors, recommended that this agreement be approved by the Board of Commissioners beginning with the 1993/1994 agreement. 5. Since revenues will match expenses for the food received, no amendments are recommended to the 1994 Budget. Amendments to the 1995 Budget will be recommended once the 1994 amount has been calculated.
